Good luck!

It'll be interesting to see how this latest addition will pan out in terms of quality coverage.

I'm sure people from the islands will welcome their contributions.

Excellent news! Now we can hear all about the corrupt land deals on Ko Samui, just like on Phuket.

I guess now we are only waiting for Murdock

under censorship who cares

I am glad at your attempt at reading. keep up the good work.

"the latest news and events from Koh Samui, Koh Tao and Koh Phangan."

Having lived and worked in Bangkok for the last twenty years I'm having this "who cares" feeling now.

Maybe I should go out more ? See how things are in the boondocks, the jungle, and so ? Mind you big cities can be more of a jungle that the real ones

Let's hope this new partnership will help raise the very low level of reporting quality from Samui Times (maybe start with three hints: cross-check your info and sources before printing, avoid eye-catching sensationalism, remember paper cuts at both sides), and TV will not leave any space for cult/sect's masked opinion pieces used to fill the 'rag' Samui Times has, alas, been until now, IMO... A newspaper should be just that, reporting news printed on paper, advertising is by all means a 'necessary evil' to survive, but insidiously contributing to the propagation of ideologies or 'religious' beliefs ('battling' with the Law in more than a country?), however well it might pay off, or seem 'righteous' to some, should not be part of a local information paper, nor present on TV, IMO again! Which were the aims and goals of the people who have started up Samui Times, might be an interesting question for TV to find out the answer to, just for TV to know...

What a joke in not even a publication, more of a Facebook scrapbook that copies and pastes stories from other publications, and then advertising anything be it good or bad, do Thaivisa really think this is progress?

Thank you. A Moderators praise is always welcome.

Also thank you to whoever contacted the Samui Times and got them to delete the 3 repeated paragraphs in the above story.

It is now almost readable.

Sad story.
